I'm sure all will be well mate.
Don't rush back to the grindstone as it might just cloud9 you up for longer than you thought.

Its not strangulated or causing me massive issues yet but it does impact on lifestyle and I just wonder if it has to get complications before I finally get in on the NHS.

Thinking of going private but i've not had so much as a broken bone before and want to get something back.



Sorry to know you're suffering as well Pete, I did enquire about going private and was told it would cost me around £3500.00, and there stood a very good chance the surgeon doing the op would be the same guy performing this for the NHS, that seriously pissed me off Friday I can tell you grr


Since this post I have managed to get a short notice date from the NHS and I am getting mine sorted via laparoscopy this Saturday- hopefully there will be no complications- will let you know what to expect when they get round to you!

Decided on your preferred post op recovery, Joe?
Hope all goes well, and don't forget to rest up a bit coffee

Has anyone mentioned you should be sensible and take it easy afterwards wink

I mean, you've got Wimbledon, the Test match commentary, what else do you need ?

All the best for tomorrow Joe, mine went without a hitch yesterday and am now sitting happily at home. Taking it easy is the key so that you don't prolong your recovery

So day 2 after the Op and I'm starting to bounce off the walls crazy

The Operation was quick, 50 minutes, a short stay in recovery and out and back home by 2pm, the main pain I'm feeling is in the neck and shoulders which is caused by the gas they use to blow up the abdomen, it's common and effects people differently so I just have to wait for it to pass.

Mango was so grumpy last week, huffing at me for not taking her out up the Malvern hills as she's been used to a long walk everyday now for the past few weeks, she would sit in front of me moaning, it's the only way I can describe her actions, funny to begin with but became quite annoying as I just wasn't up to anything longer then two 30 minutes walks each day over the fields.

How was your first week back at work post op, Joe?
Paperwork upto date and mugs clean?
I final checked a discharge script for a bloke who'd had a right one done today at the hospital . Seems to be quite a common thing for us blokes.
He was discharged with a crate of Butty bach for pain relief. See, Should've come to Hereford.
